USLL Fantasy Draft

[r3dnek]

yes i understand that this will take some time, but i hope that all involved in the USLL read my last post in the "Starting Something New" thread. Once again, there will only be 10 players to a team so there's only 10 rounds here. I intend to keep it to 5 minutes per pick, and you can switch your pick with anyone that's in the pool.

Here's the draft list order. The list flips around in the 2nd round and goes back to normal in the 3rd.

I'll post the Top 10 players at each position next. Remember you only need 1 player per position since there's no injuries. You'll need a Starting Pitcher and a relief pitcher.

Last pick, first pick, last pick, first pick.

It could be worse.

Suggestion:

Since theres not that many teams, I think we should have 15 minutes between picks..

[r3dnek]

well the thing is, i learned from Austin that it's very tough to get this thing going cuz folks are on and off a lot so i just wanna move this along quickly

[r3dnek]

so i'm gonna start the draft very soon. Definitely by 8 EST

you'll have 10 minutes to draft in the 1st round


compromise

[BstnRdSx]

That'll be good.

[JETS393]

sounds good

[Buzz Killington]

Right in the middle, am I?

[BstnRdSx]

Just about 8:00

[BstnRdSx]

I'll give him 10 minutes until I say fuck it.

[r3dnek]

sorry guys my parents are just crazy and don't actually realize that when i say i wanna use the computer now, that it means now

they seem to think NOW means 30 minutes from now

[BstnRdSx]

WTF is up with people coming in 2 minutes before I say I'm going to fuck it, lol.

[r3dnek]

Since Texans is not here i'll let him have Albert Pujols

[r3dnek]
